Adelaide Crows vs Brisbane Lions Preview
After losing three of their last four, things are only going to get tougher for the Crows. Not only is skipper Rory Sloane out indefinitely, but their next month reads: Brisbane, Essendon, West Coast and Western Bulldogs. This is not to suggest the wheels will fall off for Matthew Nicks, whose side is far more competitive in 2021 than 2020. But with little to play for, this is typically the time of the year when bottom clubs begin to struggle. And with reports this clash could be relocated to Melbourne on the back of COVID-19 outbreaks, any slim advantage thins.
The Lions looked hungry, and polished, in their 44-point demolition of the Cats in Round 15. A win here, which they remain solid favourites to do, would maintain their spot inside the Top 4. They are currently $1.20 with Palermbet to remain there come season’s end.
